‘Friday The 13th Part 2’ OST Coming To Vinyl
News hit Twitter this morning announcing that Waxwork Records, the company that has released the soundtracks to Re-Animator, Day of The Dead, and Trick ‘r Treat, will be releasing the soundtrack to Harry Manfredini‘s Friday The 13th Part 2 on vinyl. There is no release date or artwork yet but that news should be coming soon!
Waxwork has already released the score to the original Friday The 13th, which I can personally state is a fantastic release with unbelievable packaging. Also, their release of Rosemary’s Baby is a record that I put on with great frequency.
Waxwork has also hinted that there could be even more releases, stating:
For those who survived Friday the 13th, you’ll be happy to know that we have more complete F13 releases on the way.
Excited to see the release of #FridayThe13th Part 2 soundtrack on Vinyl from @waxworkrecords this year. News to come soon!

‘The Vampire Lestat: One Night Only Live’ Concert Event to Make Streaming Debut Next Month
AMC has announced that The Vampire Lestat: One Night Only LIVE, the standing-room-only performance celebrating AMC’s premiere of its newly-released The Vampire Lestat at New York City’s iconic Beacon Theatre last month, will debut on streaming.
The Vampire Lestat: One Night Only LIVE begins streaming on AMC+ on August 23.
Ahead of its streaming premiere, fans can preview the concert event, featuring original songs from series composer Daniel Hart and performed by Sam Reid, in Hall H at Comic Con International on July 24.
Our own Daniel Kurland attended the special event, highlighting how electric the Immortal Vampire is on stage: “It’s clear in this season of television that Reid was born to be a rock star, but it’s surreal to see him effortlessly command the stage — and the audience — at every step of the concert. He recites Shakespeare monologues and bitches out Armand between songs, all while the audience screams in support. For the duration of this concert, Reid is Lestat, and he’s given thousands of fans a memory that’s as immortal as any vampire.”
Based on Anne Rice‘s The Vampire Chronicles book series, The Vampire Lestat is the rock and roll-centric third season of AMC’s “Interview with the Vampire” created by showrunner Rolin Jones.
The Vampire Lestat goes on an electric multi-city tour while being haunted by “muses” from his wild and rebellious past. As his band’s popularity and star power rises, so does Lestat’s influence over vampires and humans alike, leaving others to contend with Lestat’s power in the face of the Great Conversion, an unnatural surge in the vampire population.
Jacob Anderson, Assad Zaman, Eric Bogosian, Delainey Hayles and Jennifer Ehle star with Reid. Executive producers include Jones, Mark Johnson, Hannah Moscovitch, the late Anne Rice, and her son Christopher Rice.
The series finale airs this Sunday, July 19, on AMC and AMC+.
